I just picked up 5 turken eggs today.

Were getting 5 eggs a day from all five of my hens.
& i just hatched some chicks this morning.

I have a white Turken, but I don't think she "counts" - she's mixed with a Silkie. Pretty bird, though. I have a mixture of birds, and a Turken rooster. I am going to "play" around a little bit. I have 2 eggs in the bator right now, but I don't know which hens laid them. I think one of my blue orpingtons may have laid one of the eggs, but I'm not sure.

I do have two EE eggs ready to go into the 'bator tonight. The eggs are green - I think a Turken EE would be so cool! We'll see what happens.

I do have a shipment of pure Turken eggs coming. Hopefully they hatch out for me... I would love to be able to show pure Turkens!

Hi! Look at all the pretties!
I've got more eggs in the hatcher now that may be NN's --- waiting,waiting,waiting...

This little splash girl lays a green egg:

She is in my bantam NN pen, and is half sibling to
Treasure (splash Frizzle NN):

Paired him with this blue NN green-egger:

This is another oldie, but I thought this was a sharp little fellow:

He was another bantam green-egger and went to live with a friend.

I just hatched my 1st Turken Bantams for this year.

I am setting more eggs in the incubator my girls are laying like crazy .

ken, i love your naked neck roos and barred hen, i just love them

 

[Kev]

I love them too.

These also lay blue/green eggs (plus browns and tans). Pretty special is they have single combs.. most blue/green egg layers have pea combs because the genes for both(pea and blue eggshell gene) are located very close to each other which means most of the time they inherit together.
